2020 Vancouver-Howe Sound-Sechelt Reports Thread

A freight train is coming down the track at you and can't stop or turn.
Do you: A. I'm right he's wrong, he can move.
B. He has the right of way but to hell with him because I'm stubborn and he can turn and I don't like the way he is blasting his horn at me.
C. Keep calm and carry on. Everything will work itself out.
Or D. Sell my boat and get off the water before I do something that may kill me or others.

Bonked a 12-14lb chin 170’ herring 54” on the rigger. Fresh fish nice and bright

Just received the word that the son of the man who died at Cap river yesterday is still missing and the rescue teams are coordinating a search in the mouth of the river. Watch for that operation if you’re fishing that area today.

Nice going. They finally gave you some time off to get some fishing in. And sounds like you’re doing good out there.

Youre right I think its better to keep everyone happy even if the situation was a bit ridiculous. Some tolerance from both sides is what is needed from tugs and commercial boats.

So you think the tug was offside here? Hmmmmm. I think a refresher in collision regulations is in order for you.

Just saw a boat reel in and land a nice chinook. SH. @ 120 depth. No idea on their setup.

Cool man. And thanks for being such a sport and tell me that when I passed next to you after. About an hour later I got a big one o. The same area. Took my anchovy and ran away.
Great day out there.

I was there from 9-11:30. Not a bite and didn’t see anyone reeling. Not sure about earlier.
